the new congress that was elected by the american people with barack obama probably is the one that should make the larger grand deal. what they need to do is get through the end of the year. i agree with ari, a clean slate would be great but i really don't see what the republicans' play is. spending cuts aren't popular either. do they think they're going to improve their brand by saying we're going to cut school lunches and the post office? do they think that will make it better for them? they would be best off just going ahead and taking the tax deal now and why they won't do that literally baffles me. >> both teams look like they're running down the clock. that's all they can agree on right now. joy-ann, ari, alice, my thanks to all three of you. appreciate your time. >>> we will talk to somebody now who really knows what it's like to be in house speaker john boehner's shoes. i'm joined by former house speaker dennis hastert. sir, great to have you here. i want to start with this tense phone call we have been reporting on between the president and speaker boehner. you were able to sit d
